Saddest thing among Americans is that they've been brainwashed into thinking they were the good guys in the revolution.
The revolution occurred because Britain took on a massive amount of debt to save Americans from the French and Natives. Britain wanted Americans to pay them back, but Americans just said 'no' and that's how we began fighting for our independence.
Our ancestors are shitbags. Plain and simple. "Opportunity" and "laissez-faire" are so important to American culture because they revolve around the idea "if you can get away with it, do it."
"The British defended their colony out of the kindness of their own heart and America was ungrateful" is... a take.
Well, it was their colony. I'm not sure where you're getting the 'kindness of their own heart' from.
Probably because you're biased and need to supplant legitimate arguments with ones that are easier for you to argue against.
The fact is that the colonies needed British help to win the French and Indian War. They got the help they needed and then decided they weren't going to repay those who helped them. It was a shitty move supported by greedy scumbags who got to shape the rest of the nation in their image.
How about you try arguing with what's actually said instead of supplanting it with what sounds nice in your head? You'd come across as less reddit-brained if you do so.
Yea, the funny thing is they were also shit to the people who helped them gain their independence afterwards like the French when the Americans argued their obligations were null and void once the aristocracy was overthrown.
Wow. What next? calling someone a nazi if they were even dare to acknowledge that Americans weren’t all that great during WWII what with dropping atomic bombs on schools?
Your brainwash game is deep.
Lol what a leap. Nah man, America is full of bad terrible shit and unfounded patriotism, but the revolution take is just a bad one.
Terrible shit like doing their own eugenics of sterilizing ‘unfit’ with an incredibly open definition of the word.
The only reason no one paid the price is everyone was looking over at the 6 million dead as 60k is just a drop in the bucket. They were after all, mainly going after POC. Which were defined as 1/5th of a human
So no. Not a leap.
